TV Series Review: Deadloch

By

Deadloch Amazon Studios, OK Great Productions, Guesswork Television Amazon Prime Video #whatonwhatsgood Express Review Deadloch is an Australian comedy/crime show. It is set in a town called Deadloch, Tasmania.  In the first episode, Trent Latham (Barry Wheeler) is found naked and dead on a beach.  The question is can Sergeant Dulcie Collins (Kate Box) and Det. Eddie Redcliffe (Madeleine Sami) work together to solve the mystery?  It's a whodunnit. Enjoy! Description Deadloch is an eight-part crime comedy. When a local man turns up dead on a beach, two vastly different detectives are thrown together to solve the case. Deadloch puts a comedic spin on the crime genre, completely flipping it and challenging the tropes of the genre. It’s a compelling mystery with The Kates’ signature humour, and explores themes of truth, misogyny, gender, and race. The series features a large ensemble cast led by Kate Box (Fires, Wentworth), Madeleine Sami (The Breaker Upperers), Nina Oyama ...

North By Northeast Music Festival 2022 North by Northeast Music Festival ( NXNE ) will take place Tuesday, June 14th - Sunday, June 19th in Toronto.  There will be 300+ artists at the festival.  NXNE Founder and President Michael Hollett discusses the event “We’re back and taking over more than 20 of Toronto’s top live music venues. We want to make it very easy for people to come back to live music and experience stage-hopping like festivals used to be.” “Given the pummeling the live music scene has taken over the last two years, we wanted to remove financial barriers to attending NXNE to best connect artists with audiences. You can see live music all week for the price of a movie ticket and popcorn." “We can’t wait to present these great acts to the world. It’s time to experience live music again – and listen to the future at NXNE.”  A partial list of artists invited to perform includes: 3409- Toronto, ON Ana Lía- Toronto, ON Anna Smyrk- Melbourne, Australia Atay & ...

TV Review: The Neighborhood

The Neighborhood Mud, Blood & Beer Productions/A Bird and a Bear Entertainment/Kapital Entertainment/Trill Television CBS Studios/CBS #whatonwhatsgood Express Review (by: Jovin Tardif) "The Neighborhood on CBS is about a friendly Midwestern couple (Dave and Gemma Johnson) and their son Grover (Hank Greenspan) who move to a neighborhood in Los Angeles. Gemma (Beth Behrs) got a new job as a school principal in L.A. Dave Johnson (Max Greenfield) is just about the friendliest guy in the world.  I don't think anyone can dislike him.  Well one person can... They have a pretty opinionated next-door neighbor, the grouchy mechanic Calvin Butler (Cedric the Entertainer).  He has a wife named Tina (Tichina Arnold) and two sons Marty (Marcel Spears) and Malcolm (Sheaun McKinney).   Dave is desperately trying to fit in with the community.  Will the Johnsons be accepted by everyone?   The series is quite amusing.  Tina as Calvin's wife is fun as she keeps...

TV Mini Series: The Dropout (2022)

By

The Dropout Elizabeth Meriwether Pictures/Semi-Formal Productions/20th Television/Searchlight Television Disney Platform Distribution/Hulu Genre Drama #whatonwhatsgood Express Review (by: Jovin Tardif) 'The Dropout' tells the story of Elizabeth Holmes (Amanda Seyfried).   The series basically explores the rise and fall of Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos. Her goal was to create a blood diagnostic technology that will be able to run hundreds of tests on a single drop of blood.  Her technology never worked.   I must say, Amanda Seyfried does an amazing portrayal of Elizabeth Holmes.  The story allows you to see Holmes in high school, as a college freshman, and eventually a businesswoman. If you like Netflix’s “ Inventing Anna " or  Showtime’s “ Super Pumped ” you will definitely like "The Dropout".  If you want to learn more about the story, make sure to check out the HBO documentary 'The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley' (2019) dire...
